The one and only Lisa Loeb kicks off Season 5 at the Firehouse Arts Center. Grammy-nominated for her platinum-selling hit "Stay (I Missed You)," Lisa's dynamic career encompasses music, film, television, an eyewear collection, award-winning children's recordings, and work on behalf of her charity, the Camp Lisa Foundation. The show, part of Loeb's 2014 national tour, celebrates new songs plus 20 glorious years of music making.
Lisa Loeb has successfully parlayed her talents into a multi-dimensional career encompassing music, film, television, voice-over work and children's recordings. She has recorded eight acclaimed albums, including the Grammy-nominated, gold-selling Firecracker. In addition to her new children's book-and-CD, she is the author of Lisa Loeb's Silly Sing-Along: The Disappointing Pancake and Other Zany Songs (Sterling), which won a Parents' Choice Award.
In her first feature film role, Loeb starred opposite Oscar-winning actor Geoffrey Rush, in the movie House On Haunted Hill in 1999, followed by more horror film appearances (who knew?).
20 Years after Lisa Loeb struck gold with her song "Stay (I Missed You)," the song still remains relevant in pop culture, appearing prominently in TV shows like the hit series, "Orange is the New Black," "Workaholics," and "The New Girl."
To this day, Lisa is still the only artist to have a Number 1 single while not signed to a recording contract, although perhaps not surprising for the Brown grad girl with the cat-eye glasses, who at the time was already making her mark in New York's burgeoning singer-songwriter scene.
In 2013, she released No Fairy Tale, a collection of original songs produced by her friend and colleague Chad Gilbert (New Found Glory), which Billboard called a "peppy, pop-punk album." As Conan O'Brien noted when Loeb and her band appeared on the show, "If (life) WERE a fairy tale, Lisa would TOTALLY be Snow White, but with cooler glasses."
